Our take

Siren opens with saffron and narcissus. The saffron brings a warm, slightly metallic spice that sits close to the floral sharpness of the narcissus. This initial impression is bright and somewhat austere. The heart introduces iris, tea rose, cedar, and orange blossom. The iris and tea rose create a powdery, vintage-style floral layer, while cedar adds a dry, woody structure and orange blossom contributes a fresh, white floral lift. The composition feels deliberate and leans into a classic, traditional floral arrangement.

The base defines the fragrance with sandalwood, Moroccan rose, ambrette, oud, and amber. Sandalwood provides a creamy, smooth woodiness that anchors the Moroccan rose, which is deep and slightly honeyed. Ambrette adds a soft, musky warmth that blends into the amber, creating a rich, resinous foundation. Oud appears here with a damp, earthy wood character that avoids heavy smoke. The drydown is dense, woody, and powdery, with the floral elements receding to let the resins and woods take control. The blend of so many heavy base notes results in a scent that can feel crowded and heavy-handed, lacking the space for individual elements to breathe clearly.
